THE FIRST BOOK IN AN EPIC FANTASY SERIES: A “beautifully lyrical” sword and sorcery adventure with magic, evil, romance, and an unforgettable teen heroine (Romantic Times).
Exiled for more than two decades, a race of magical shapeshifting warriors wage a battle against the sorcerers who threaten their very existence . . .
They were the Cheysuli, a race of magical warriors gifted with the ability to assume animal shape at will. For centuries, they had been allies to the King of Homana, treasured champions of the realm. Until a king’s daughter ran away with a Cheysuli liege man and caused a war of annihilation against the Cheysuli race.
Twenty-five years later, the Cheysuli were hunted exiles in their own land, feared for their sorcery, their shapeshifting . . . This is the story of Alix, the daughter of that ill-fated union between Homanan princess and Cheysuli warrior, and her struggle to master the call of magic in her blood, and accept her place in an ancient prophecy she cannot deny.
Full of romance, epic battles, and fascinating shapeshifters, this first novel in a classic sword and sorcery series will charm both teens and adults!
